I don't own an air chisel either. I've probably been stuck on projects where I wished I had one, but at the end of it all found a less destructive solution that still got the job done.

BTW, I bought it from eBay seller mlautotools, it was item 262857000603, but that has now sold out.
Like I posted before, the tool is too small for the CV axle to fit through. The axle nut is M27 but what is the actual outside diameter of the threaded portion of the CV joint??? Bet you it's a little bigger than 29.8mm.

Needed to replace the lower ball joint on the Soccer mom's minivan. With my Air hammer I had the ball joint out of the knuckle in no time at all. A lot less swearing.
